1. Coach Pete makes his debut

It’s been nearly nine months since Petersen was announced as the Huskies' head coach, and they haven’t exactly been uneventful. Petersen and nearly all his staff relocated from Boise to Seattle with their families, and numerous off-field distractions have made the transition eventful, to say the least.

Petersen and his staff likely welcome the opportunity to play a meaningful game for the first time in his Washington tenure, and Saturday’s matchup against Norm Chow and the Rainbow Warriors will be their first chance to establish their brand of football with the Huskies.
